The SLC22A5 gene provides instructions for making a protein called OCTN2 that is found in the heart, liver, muscles, kidneys, and other tissues. This protein is positioned within the cell membrane, where it transports a substance known as carnitine into the cell. Carnitine is mainly obtained from food and is needed to bring certain types of fats (fatty acids) into mitochondria, which are the energy-producing centers within cells. Fatty acids are a major source of energy for the heart and muscles. During periods without food (fasting), fatty acids become the most important energy source for the heart and other muscles.

Sferocitosi ereditaria
Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) è an inherited condition of red blood cells. The disease can be mild and go unrecognised in some people. In others there may be severe anaemia requiring regular blood transfusions. Some people with hereditary spherocytosis may be offered surgery to remove their spleen. This usually helps the condition, but increases.

distrofia muscolare di Duchenne
. Each person inherits a set of genes from their father and another set from their mother. The genes have been copied from the parents' cells into the child's cells. Genes are found on 'chromosomes', rather like houses on a street. The DMD gene is located on a chromosome called the X chromosome. Boys have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome;.
